Assembly – York Midi and Serrano Free-Standing
York Midi Freestanding Remote
Serrano Freestanding Remote
The stove will be supplied in two separate boxes. The first contains the cast iron stove body and
the second the Flame effect unit. Check that the specified components are included before you
start setting up your Stove.
Box 1 Box 2
1 x Cast iron stove body 1 x Flame Effect Unit
(with transit bar fitted) 1 x Decorative coal effect
1 x Set of Four Legs 1 x Instruction booklet.
Assembly Sequence:
1. Carefully remove all packaging and protective materials from the stove body. Remove
and discard the ‘transit bar’ from stove body. This item stops the sides of the stove body
from moving in transit. It has been positioned into the vertical channels where the Flame
Effect Unit is to be slotted into place.
2. Remove the cast iron lid from the stove body and lay the stove body on its back
3. Attach the four legs using the bolts/nuts provided. Please note these bolts/nuts will
normally be pre-fitted into the base of the stove. Stand the main stove body upright on its
feet.
4. Carefully remove all packaging and protective materials from the flame effect unit.
5. Insert the flame effect unit into the stove body. The unit is lowered down carefully from
the top of the body with the sides located into the grooves on each side of the stove
body. If the flame effect will not slide down easily, you may need to slacken the bolts
connecting the sides of the stove body to the front and base. Take care not to trap the
cable whilst lowering the flame effect unit into the stove body.
6. Open the main door (and ash door on York Midi). On the Serrano, the door simply pulls
open using the handle. For the York Midi you will need to turn the handle anti-clockwise
until it comes free from the locking thread.
7. Remove the Perspex from the stove. The Perspex is held in place by four screws which
will need to be removed.
8. Remove both sides of the protective covering from the Perspex.

The Desire, Ignite and Hereford free-standing stoves will be fully assembled, however
these appliances MUST be secured to the rear wall and floor using the fixing points
shown below.
The floor fixing points also provide adjustment to level up the product when placed on an un-
even surface. Front Adjustment is provided by two concealed bolts (under the base).
The wall cable will need to be passed through the hook fixing on the wall. It can then be
adjusted to length and locked using the fixing on the left hand side (rear of stove body).

Please unpack carefully ensuring that any loose parts and all packing items are removed. Read
any warning labels carefully (see Maintenance Section). Place waste packaging back into box
and dispose of RESPONSIBLY.
The appliance must be positioned so that plug (fused spur) is accessible. Only when you
are certain that you have completed the following installation instructions should you
plug in and switch on at the wall socket.
Contents: 1 x Stove Body Trim, 1 off Fire engine (attached to stove body), Instruction
leaflet, 4 off No.6 x 1 ¾” screws, 1 x Door (Packed in box), 2 x Angle Brackets (for back
panel), 6 x Angle Bracket Fixings, 2 x Wall Fixings
Check that the supply voltage details on your flame effect fire are in accordance with your
electrical supply. Your fire is fitted with a plug incorporating a 13 Amp fuse. In the event of
replacing the fuse in the plug supplied, a 13 Amp fuse approved by ASTA to BS 1362 must be
used. Before switching on, please read the following operation instructions.
First ensure that the opening dimensions match the drawing below.
Unpack the fire by removing all the boxes from the
pallet and then removing the stove main body by
loosening and removing the 4 screws. With the body
removed next unscrew the fire engine from the pallet
and remove the L shaped bracket from the bottom
rear of the stove “wings”.

Fitting to a Fire Surround Back Panel
Measure the thickness of your back panel that the fire is to be fixed to, for panels 18mm –
22mm attach the two L shaped angle brackets with the return facing forward. For panels 38mm
- 42mm the L shaped angle bracket returns will need to face backward.
18mm – 22mm Back Panel 38mm – 42mm Back Panel
Angle Brackets
When fitting to a back panel the unit is secured in place by sandwiching the back panel between
the engine unit and the main body (as shown above).
The engine unit needs to be positioned through the back panel. Ensure an electrical supply
connection is made at this stage. Slide the engine through the back panel opening on a
diagonal then pull towards you so that it is straight and the engine wings are snug behind the
back panel. Offer the Stove body trim up to the engine unit in the opening, using the 4 off 1 ¾
No.6 screws provided. Loosely fix the trim to the holes provided on the fixing wings. Once all
four screws are loosely attached, fully screw the fire into position. Take care not to overtighten
and strip the threads of the hole.Once the stove is in position only then turn on the mains supply
and proceed to the door fitting section.
Fitting to an existing 16” x 22” opening
For installations directly into an existing fireplace opening, you will need to secure the main
body to the opening using the two provided wall fixings.
Re-attach the main body to the engine unit using the four
fixings and slide the assembled unit into the fireplace
opening. Mark the two wall fixing points and remove the fire
from the opening to enable drilling/wall fixing. Re-position
the fire and make any necessary electrical connections.
Ensure the site is clear of debris before finally securing
the fire to the wall.
Please note wall plugs are not provided as this will depend
on the material the fire is to be secured to.

Optional Hearth Fixing
In both cases (with our without back panel) the engine unit MUST be secure before proceeding
to attach the door. It is also possible to fix the engine unit to the hearth should either of the
above methods not provide an adequately secure fixing in your individual installation.
With the main body attached to the engine unit, slide the assembly into the opening (in its final
position).
Remove the main body by un-doing the four fixings and carefully remove from the engine, mark
the two hearth fixing points and remove the engine unit from the opening.
Drill and plug the two fixing points (fixings not supplied). Ensure the opening is clear of debris
and re-position the engine unit (making any necessary electrical connections in the process).
Secure the engine unit to the hearth. Re-attach the main body using the four fixings
Door Fitting
Desire & Ignite Inset:
The Door assembly supplied should be ready to fit, once the fire is installed then hang the Door
onto the hinges fixed on the main body by locating the hinges on the door over the top of the
hinges on the main body, move the door open and closed a few times so that the hinge mates
correctly.
Hereford Inset:
The door should be supplied assembled with the upper hinge pin in position and the lower hinge
pin ready to fit to the assembly. Locate the upper hinge pin in position in the upper hinge on the
main body. Manoeuvre the door so that the lower pin (supplied) can drop through into the lower
hinge pin. Lock the lower pin in position by fixing the slider component in position using the M5
Allen bolt. The slider should rest on top of the pin so as to prevent the pin rising up out of the
lower hinge.

Safety thermal cut-out
This appliance is fitted with an Electric Safety Control (E.S.). This is a safety device, which
switches off the fire if, for any reason, the appliance overheats. The E.S. Control can only be re-
set after the appliance has cooled down, in Order to re-set the E.S. Control, proceed as follows:
Switch off the appliance. Unplug at wall socket and leave for approximately 5-10 minutes. Plug
in switch on appliance and the E.S. Control will re-set.
Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the E.S. Control switches off again it is
advisable to have the appliance checked by a competent electrician.
Note: -This appliance also has a secondary thermal fuse link incorporated into the heating
element that will break the electrical circuit in the event that the heater fan fails to operate.
Unlike the E.S. if this link breaks the fire will not be allowed to re set and the appliance should
be checked by a competent electrician and the fan/element replaced.
CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut out, this
appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or
connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.
Maintenance
